Thoughts on free Money drops?

[RaspberryLlama]

Hi guys, I wanted to know your thoughts on free money drops from random people in the community. I’m sure we’ve all been minding our own business and someone comes in the lobby just to cage you, kick/crash you, or even do something nice and drop money for you. Do some of you guys like being dropped, or hate it for wanting to play legit/other reasons? Yesterday I was in a lobby with a modder and he dropped a kid for 1min straight and then asked him to pay 10$ for the rest of the day. I thought him asking for REAL money to drop GTA MONEY was a stupid idea, why would we give money to modder. But then I thought about the games price, these modders can’t mod without purchasing a new account everytime. That’s why they ask for money, would you guys pay the 10$ to support them for helping us? Or would you back out.

It's not 'help.' It's a violation of TOS - and a bannable offense - and we report modders whenever they attempt to trouble us, or others.

i was saying "help" as a pov for others

if people really dont need that money there are multiple ways to 1) avoid getting it 2) getting rid of it

as for the "cheating" aspect yes it's still cheating, but does money cheating matters in a game like Gta online? gameplay designed only for micro transactions, full of bugs and technical issues

if this game had no micro transactions and everyone had to get their stuff by just playing, maybe it would be more of an issue.

agree

No, I wouldn't pay money to a modder and neither should you

this is a pov for others, i would never pay money in game.

i don't really get why people beg for money, the drop rate is so slow lol
and it is really annoying when a modder drops money on you and forces you in the transactions error screen, just switch sessions or whatver not that big of an issue.

yah its only 2500 per second and it takes like 5 mins just just 1m. youd be sitting here all day if you wanted a b$

I still have a good chunk of cash, back when cheaters were giving everyone money (in chucks of 15M per second) during Christmas.

Obviously this was patched, and I haven't seen anything since, so when someone comes in the forum claiming I got 50M from a cheater without consent, he is lying, he had to stay there for hours.

And no R* has never banned anyone for getting money drops, is not our fault, at max they've removed cash from accounts (happened to a good chunk of my crew members).

danggg

[Armada]

I mean I guess you would be paying for their time. Who thinks they are so important that even a modder wants to spend the better part of an hour just giving them money for free?

I think it's habit or something. There used to be a time when money drops could net millions. I went afk in my apartment a few years back and came back to see 120 million was just automatically deposited on my character. This might have been about 40 minutes I was away (was parked in front of the tv) Obviously that kind of money can't be dropped these days but a lot of people still seem to think it's some magic payday.

I personally love getting money drops. I've only got one so far and it was only 80k but my friend got 900million. I wish I could get that amount of money someday.

None of that matters. You sign a agreement to play when you first attempt to go online, the TOS, or terms of service. You are a liar if you agree then violate your agreement, and you deserve a ban. You don't like the way TT and R* have set up the game? Then go elsewhere. Someone acting poorly is not justification to act unethically, or go back on your word. Why do I even need to explain this??!??

No matter how you 'frame' it, it's still cheating and a violation of the agreed upon TOS, period.

As a former modder, it really annoys people, some may be happy, but some won't be and you will ruin their legit experience, I just minded my own business, I wanted to skip the grind and wanted to play the most fun and interesting parts of the game without having to stay 1 month to grind money so I can get one car. I never interfered in someone else's experience, I only used God or other cheats in very hard missions in case we failed too many times. I was a good modder. Of course, I got banned for 3 months and my account was reset but until that point I have already done everything and got pretty bored of the game, I found out I was banned like 1 month after.

If you don't want a modder to give you money, then change your session.

And the thing where they want 10$ for GTA Money is just stupid, you better just buy a shark card, at least the money will help Rockstar create more games(as if they don't have enough)

Well if you think about it, they’re making more money off of modders then they’re shark cards. When a modder gets banned and they wanna mod again, they buy another game. Which is why rockstar really isn’t ip banning or doing anything to big to stop modders. They know exactly what they’re doing and they love it. But sucks for us.
